 Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
Just hypothetically and all, which do you value most/least? I was going to throw sexual ability in there but I don't think it'd be as crippling as the others
I'd put sight first, hearing second, and legs third. In terms of most value to me.

 Re: Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
I really don't want to go blind. Blindness ruins movies, ruins art, ruins the beauty of nature.
I guess legs are next. I can always get robotic ones so its a minor short-term inconvience at best.
Deaf people seem to still have a lot of fun and you can actually feel music, so front row at Radiohead wouldn't suck too much. Plus, lots of sex at deaf people conferences. Summer camp too.

 Re: Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
I have always thought that if I lost any of my senses I would just simply commit suicide. But tbqh, I am not sure I could actually commit suice, ever.
But hey if we're gonna bring it down to dollas and cents I'll go with sight because to not see the beautiful things in this world is a tad bit much to ask of one person I think.
But it's like one depends on the other, really.

Sight, really. For a film fan it's just even moreso devastating. I also love to travel.

Sight Legs has to be second Hearing Also what about touch / taste if that could ever happen? Touch proberly wouldn't be a big deal But Taste??? Imagine you never could taste any food/wine/etc ever again > that would suck! ( Maybe if you had to receive all your food through an IV )

 Re: Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
Touch would be a huge deal I think. For one it means no sexual pleasure!
I'd lose my legs first, then eyesight, then hearing.
I simply couldn't live without music.

I simply couldn't live without music. On touch, well I was just thinking that you could relate with the eyes/brain > I know you can become stimulated just seeing things. And truthfully, I would want to lose any of the others. Also on the legs, how good would sex be without legs > unless you just wanted to be "ridden".

 Re: Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
I would fucking hate to be blind. I mean, what do you do all day? There's no Internet, there's really no TV or movies, there's no going out and actually being able to look around. Being blind would fucking suck. I hope it never happens to me. Gawd, please. Knock on fucking wood.
Then I'd say losing my legs. That would suck ass too. So would being deaf, but you can still see crap and really participate even though you're deaf. So deaf the least for me.

 Re: Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
Like the majority here I would have to put being blind as the worst. Not only would I not be able to watch movies or sports, I would also have to learn braile in order to read. That would be awful! At least being deaf you can still read all the books you want.
Losing my legs would be a close second though. It would be hard to go from running/playing sports a lot to nothing. Although I'd most likely join a wheelchair basketball league.
Of the 5 sense smell would be the easiest to go without. My olfactory glands don't work and it really isn't that bad.

 Re: Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
I would rather lose my hearing than smell/taste/touch/sight.

There's a blind girl in my class, and she has this special computer program that reads everything to her, so she can still go on the internet and take notes in class and study normally. She can also watch movies and TV...you have to explain some things to her, but amazingly even if you don't she still understands the movie!

I would say sight, but every time I see one of Munky's posts here I start to have my doubts.

 Re: Which do you value most/would least want to lose?
Same order as shack, I couldn't stand to lose sight, I love reading (not listening to taps or using brail or w/e but actually reading) and I love film, so that would be bullshit. I wouldn't like loosing my hearing but I could bear it. Legs would simply be annoying, they're not really that important to me, it would just be kinda weird.
